We are trying are trying to migrate our CSM server from 5.2 RML05 to
AIX 5.3

We have carried out all the prelimes, ie tarring certain dirs and
running csmbackup and ./pre_migration

We have broken the mirror on rootvg and done a alt_clone

We also have loads of disk space and mem , how ever when we boot off
the first cd to install we get the following error:

0516-1122

0516-842 Unable to make logical partition copies for logical volume

As mentioned above we do have the space , however when we tried to
increase /usr either via chfs or extendlv they both failed

Any ideas , I cant seem to find any info on migration from 5.2 to 5.3 ,
there is loads of info about 4.3 or 5.1 to 5.3 but not 5.2

Regards

weed :-)

Check CSM 1.4 documentation regarding upgrade. AIX 5.3 supports csm 1.4
only, so if you're coming from prev. version you might have problem
which could be resolved by installation of the correct version of CSM
after AIX migration.
